My heart dropped when I saw a new email from Ford. Why Ford... why?!

Same here. They love playing games with us.

I received a text from my sales person this morning! I have a date and a VIN. No email tho.

Does that show up on your Ford account online already?

I think it has caused a hitch in my XLT, because that was the only extra beside floor mats that I ordered

It is sad that a $100 option would hold up an order!

Not the guy who got scheduled but, My Ford account has never linked to my order. I don't know how to link it. It just says I have no orders.

My 4 cyl Man Tran

Been going back and forth! I've always wanted a truck but hated the standard MPG on most trucks. My dad got a 2023 Ranger and it gets like 26 MPG. Thinking that may be the "backup backup" vehicle . The car I currently drive still runs great so i'm not in a major rush to get a new car. Just think it's time for an upgrade. My current car has manual locks and windows haha. Think i'm just tired of that. Still runs great. No issues so far. You're right tho. Think im just going to sit back and try to remain as patient as I can until July.

2005 Ranger is awesome. Just a hint to push up the MPG I changed the tired from stock to Pizza Cutters. Tall and skinny 205 75 15 I went up to 31 mpg that Day

And the starting price for the base ranger is $32,500. I don’t know how ford is going to stay in business when the small vehicles are costing so much. I would have figured they would have realized this with Maverick and it’s high demand. Crazy

It'd be pretty funny if my XL Hybrid gets scheduled this week as I just bought a Kia Niro PHEV today and also cancelled my hybrid order. I'm at peace though as I really like the new Niro PHEV, so far.

We have a Kia Niro, but not the plug in. It has been a FANTASTIC SUV. Have had it for a year and a half, averaged overall about 44 mpg, and have had 150 mi trips where we were not in a hurry, set cruise for 69 mpg and hit 57 mpg when trip over. Comfortable and a great car. I also have Maverick Lariat hybrid and love it as well.

Yes, but no sticker yet, which is reasonable. The SIBL was missed, which makes me a bit grumpy, but that can added after.

Ya but crazy dealer markups on Mavericks narrow the price spread

Funny (or sad) how, when we ordered our trucks, the constraints were completely different than now. When I ordered last September, the constraints on my XL were mainly cosmetic (mud flaps, window visors, bed liners). Since then, constraints have also included hitches. Some folks have changed their orders to remove items currently constrained; but who knows what will be constrained next week or next month? The song plays on.

The constraint was always XL Hybrid. 15% of MY2023 for XL trim, and 35% (initially) of MY2023 to be Hybrid. That right there was already going to be unicorn territory.

Nobody at my dealer told me the bad news about XL's and hybrids when I ordered. Probably wouldn't know now if I wasn't looking online.

Yeah, but I don’t think anybody (even Ford) knows what the final numbers are going to be. A lot lot of the things Ford “planned” changed over time. For instance: hitches weren’t constrained last September, but were by December and have been ever since. They didn’t expect so many hybrid orders, but hybrids don’t seem to be listed in current constraints. All any of us can do is play the game and take our chances.

My dealer told me when I ordered my Maverick on 9-15-2022 to order the Eco Boost if I ever want to see it.

They're making more Hybrids, just not XL Hybrids.
